Bridal Registry. . . .NOW at LIVI & Company !!! Come in and register with us. . . get a $20.00 gift certificate!
Thanks to all of you who helped us kick off our day today!!
Were you the friend of Livi who had your name placed on a one-of-a-kind piece of wall art from Rustic Branch when we caught your post on Facebook last night?
Maybe you were the local business woman who came back after that chair painted by our very own local artist, Lisa Lanier……couldn’t quite get it off your mind, and you decided it WOULD be perfect for your daughter’s college bathroom space.
Perhaps you were the wanderer who caught a glimpse of that awesome white coffee table that might just work for your friend who couldn’t rush over but would stop by a couple of hours later to take a look for herself! Yes, it was our pleasure to put that simple piece of paper with the glorious word “HOLD” on it! This one’s taken for now, guarded for eyes yet to be seen!
Many faces…..many steps.
Maybe you’re still awaiting your chance to stroll through our ongoing aisles in search of who knows what! (Right now’s a great time with our annual sale under way.) Regardless, we thank you for following us on these pages, and you should know we were blessed between the walls of Livi today! The stories continue with both large and small patches of time taken to share what’s what and what you know good (or in some cases, bad), and we’re all a bit different for having crossed one another’s paths. Such is life, and ain’t it grand!?!

I really like to just jump in a truck with your backpack and just drive and go somewhere. ~Piper Perabo
Sweet, sweet Summertime! Road trip becomes the order of the day, and time flies out the window. Time to rest your soul and turn your face to the sun. See what the folks of Livi have been up to…….
You just have to see this bar to appreciate it! Awesome in an outdoor kitchen or porch! Loving it…..
You guessed it. It’s a bullitin board, handcrafted by the best!
Tables, desks, and more heading your way!
Did you mention needing a frame, or two, or ten?
We’ve been working on a few accent pieces….quick “pick-me-ups!”
Soooo, ya’ll need to come check out these skirts/dresses/drapes! Literally, 100 ways to wear it, and Lord knows it took me forever to give up and look at the neat little photos showing me “how to” wear it! Much easier to read the directions, but we stubborn girls can’t help ourselves. I’m officially in love with my very own dress, which with it’s many layered fabrics, looks like a new dress each way you wear it! I’m all about a bargain, and this one you can do in style!
So, before I could even post this pic, the creative chick behind it has already brought in a cute-as-pie chest of drawers……and it’s also a steal at under $100. Get movin!!
Oh, did I mention I’ve borrowed my hubby’s Father’s Day gift??? Oh, what fun a new camera is when it actually does what you want! I may just make this photo my screen saver.
I have to admit I’ve found myself captivated by some of the latest images at Livi. Something incredible happens when you surround yourself with talented, crafty beings…..it tends to rub off on you.
Lots of character….need I say more?
You guessed it! Rustic Branch has been at it again!
Beautiful stenciled chests…
It’s great to finally be able to share up close and personal photos of our beautiful jewelry! Allyson has been a busy bee!!
This scene reminds me of Trent’s Grandmother, and this desk would’ve had to come home with us when we first decorated at newlyweds.
Sweet twin bed….no, not everything is painted! Gorgeous just as it is….
Again, no need for paint!
Awesome accent tray table….bedside or chairside!
hmmm, hmmmm….talented people, indeed. Mosaic tile plus corkboard brings us a one-of-a-kind grab.
Your call! Rustic or traditional, eclectic or simply elegant!
‘Bout time to jump in that old truck and see what you can find! Set your sites on the journey at hand, go fearlessly, and travel with only those who will truly enjoy the road with you. Why would you go it alone when you can have someone to share your cotton candy with! See you at Livi!

“Buy, buy, says the sign in the shop window; Why, why, says the junk in the yard” ~Paul McCartney
Exciting times at Livi as we continue to evolve! Self-proclaimed “works in progress” ourselves, we relate well to the castaways of yesteryear that are finding new life today amongst our many finds. If you need a break from the hot Summer heat, now’s a great time to revisit your faves and take a peek at our newest members of Livi!
I want it, I want it, I want this table!!!
Rustic Branch is always in season! Dull Door be gone! 
A pop of red is good for the soul…..
Yes, this sideways vintage leather chair does have a mate, and is much more easily seen right-side up in the store! LOL. (Cameras do not always cooperate with me!!)
Antique buffets in good shape with a taste of character are becoming harder to find! Won’t last long!
If it were up to my daughter, we’d find a way, (some way, any way) to put this one in her room! Fun color!
They made it in for Mother’s Day and Graduation, and they continue to be a huge hit! More on the way!
Painted, simple, and just in from one of our newest additions to Livi!!
And, yes, I do have a Tshirt fresh from this lively spot! Love it and get compliments every time it graces my back…..talks a bit about courage.
Just the right punch of red!! We have the pair, and what show-stoppers they are!
I’m always in trouble here! Precious outfits just right for our two nieces!
Polka dots anyone?? Cute as can be, with more updates just around the corner!
We’re hittin’ the road in June, July, AND August in search of, well, of whatever we can’t resist bringing back to good ‘ole South Georgia for you to find, dig in, and possibly add to your own mix of fabulous finds! In the meantime, be sure you only take home things you love……life’s too short to be surrounded by stuff you hate to look at every day!!!
Be Blessed, and Enjoy Your Journey! Shonya

With Christmas music heard overhead, Santa Clause shouting, “Merry Christmas,” and our children giddy with excitement, there’s no doubt Christmas is here! As a small retail business, we rely heavily on this time of year to carry us through some of our slower months. With that said, I have a special request……
We say it every year…let’s remember the real reason we celebrate Christmas….let’s not get caught up in over-spending…..let’s enjoy and treasure moments with our children and family. This year, it has hit me in a slightly different way.
Let’s not leave the baby in the manger after Dec. 25.
He didn’t stay there. Why do we sometimes leave him there? He grew, he thrived, he healed, he deserves so much more.
Yes, it is a magical time of year!!! Yes, I do believe! I believe in the simplicity of the season….underneath all the flashing lights, sales signs, and rush to get “it” all done! I believe in Santa reminding us about the gift of giving! I believe our children deserve to see past the cuteness of the season and into something, someone they can truly cling to now and later in life!
Thank you for sharing part of your Christmas season with us at Livi! My family is blessed to have a glimpse into your life. As you seek to find the perfect gifts for those on your list, it is my prayer that you also find the absolute gift….the gift of life given in the birth of Jesus Christ. Merry Christmas!

As the story goes, a beautiful blonde-haired, blue-eyed pixie named Ella was heard telling her teacher in no uncertain terms, “I’m a Livi Girl.” When asked what a “Livi Girl” is, she quickly replied with a matter-of-fact smile, “A girl who shops at Livi,” as if to say, “Doesn’t everyone know?”
Ella was only 4 at the time, and it still makes me smile! Livi girls know they’re Livi girls early on!!
We want to know what makes you a LIVI GIRL!! The Spirit of Livi continues to soar as we celebrate our 4 Year Anniversary in October. As you celebrate with us, remember that the Spirit of Livi that makes us Livi Girls runs through our blood! Whether you actually drove those old dusty dirtroads as a child (YES, I do mean DROVE), or pulling on a pair of vintage cowboy boots is the closest you’ll ever come to being a “Country Girl,” you have that yearning to overcome, to roar from time to time, to grab life by its bootstraps and get on down the road…..to meet what life has to offer you!
Send us your photos of just simply living life to its fullest! Join our Livi & Company Group page on Facebook, https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/99979207974/ and drop your photos into our Album entitled “Living it as a Livi Girl.” You could be selected for our Livi & Company $100 Gift Certificate to be given away in October.
Thanks for hanging out with us over the last four years! We continue to strive to bring you the most unique mixture of found treasures mixed with the spirit of friendship and true love of junk and everything fun & fabulous! Join us Saturday, October 8th as we celebrate you with Customer Appreciation Day at Livi!

Over the course of the last week, I’ve found myself reflecting on what makes each of us who we are. (You can always count on thoughtful moments when home with a sick child!)
The following poem was shared by Nelson Mandella after having been in captivity for 27 years before becoming President of South Africa.
Our Deepest Fear
by Marianne Williamson
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
……..let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

What? You thought it was Livi, right? If you’ve been around my husband or me lately, you know we’ve been undergoing a bit of a transformation. Back in Sept., I found myself ballooning over the top of even my dress pants with not much energy to carry myself, much less our children or the store, through the day. I’d also been in much prayer over God’s will for my life during this leg of my journey……specifically asking for ways to help those around us who have been less fortunate. Insert Visalus into my story……
Have you ever looked back and thought, WOW! I’m with you…..almost 6 months later, I stand in amazement at how God has used Livi & Company and all associated with it as his vehicle for change. It even hit me this week that the names of the two businesses are a “part” of one another, as noted in this post’s given name. Crazy!
I won’t go into details, since you can find out all you want to know and more at www.energizedandfit.bodybyvi.com , but I will tell you that I, along with hundreds of others right here in Southwest GA, have experienced change in so many ways. The core of the Visalus program is its shakes…I know, I know, are you kidding??? Having never even tried anything like this before, I was skeptical, not to mention my husband. Then I lost 6 lbs in the first week of having 2 shakes per day! Yes, they truly are delicious, and they work! Even with no workouts involved, the nutrients in these shakes have helped to sculpt my body by aiding in the conversion of fat to muscle.
Not a week goes by without someone Emailing, Facebooking, or calling with another success story……coming off of medications, losing weight, completing that marathon, having more energy, etc., once they’ve started Visalus. I’ve been inspired to transform yet again. With that said, I’m officially committing to the second leg of my own transformation, my next 90-Day Challenge. As I said to a friend of mine, “THE WEIGHT IT GONE, IT’S TIME TO TONE!” I missed out on “before” pictures back in Sept., because I really didn’t expect the weight to come off so quickly. Not this time! I have photos, but I’m not sharing full view until I have “after” ones to compare! LOL My new goal is to become healthier & toned, and now I have the energy to work toward that goal.
So, what’s your 90-Day Challenge? To become healthier, lose weight, have more energy for your family? Here’s to the journey….yours…..mine…..let it be based on the faith that this journey is so much bigger than each of us!! Be blessed, my friends!
